E-Bay Accepting Crypto- Bring on BCH So guys, as I may have mentioned, I do a bit of writing also on Publish0x under the account I-HODL, and today I posted a short article on eBay's recent announcement about its plans to accept crypto, possibly with a major announcement on March 10th. https://www.publish0x.com/a-crypto-journey/e-bay-to-accept-crypto-xppqzll I noted in the article that this was a major announcement because: As an e-commerce giant, eBay manages approximately…
Cryptocurrency- Money Redefined I've been thinking a lot about money recently, maybe it's a knee jerk reaction to all that's been happening. Maybe it's the conversations about skyrocketing gas prices. Maybe it's the fact that **yesterday, US Federal Reserve chair, Jerome Powell, described America's inflation as much too high and expressed the Fed's willingness to raise rates more aggressively**. Maybe it's the impact that the COVID 19 pandemic has had on the global economy.…
What's Your Feedback? Guys, I've been wondering: How do you use the **like** and **dislike** buttons on social media? Do you upvote content that you truly have taken the time to listen to or read and because you like the content or do you upvote purely because you support the content creator, and it doesn't matter what content they put out? Similarly, when you press dislike and downvote content, do you take the time to constructively share your feedback? Do you offer…
Another MP proposes to receive his salary in crypto So guys, get this. I've been planning to write a piece on **the Merge at Ethereum** since- **barring a few minor glitches on March 15th- it appears as though** **the way has been cleared** **for a complete transitioning of the network to proof of stake later this year.** Cue the round of applause for a more eco-friendly and sustainable Ethereum. https://thedefiant.io/ethereum-merge-test-eth2/ And since this process is…
I tore my hair off and then thought I had a tumor So guys, recently I had a little situation where my hair was falling off in clumps. I'd been growing my hair for the past couple years, and I've been pretty proud of my growth until recently I started losing huge clumps of hair. In the past weeks it got so bad, my hair was thinning and the edges were practically non-existent. In about a month, I went from a full head of healthy hair to just shedding huge clumps all over. I…
There are always stars in the sky, even when you can't see them. I was sitting outside my home this evening, musing. The sky was overcast as was my mood. Things have been somewhat bleak lately, and so I was sitting down simply trying to puzzle out a way to get to the silver lining. And then it hit me, almost as though an angel came and sat next to me and whispered in the ear: take heart, there are always stars in the sky, even when you can't see them. I thought to share this…
Another Look at FTM So guys, Fantom (FTM) is trading at $1.38, after plummeting from a height of $3.28 in January to lows of $1.04 just about ten days ago, due in part to an overall slump in crypto prices coupled with the FUD that followed the announced departure of prominent developers Andre Cronje and Anton Nell. Is this new rally a sign that FTM is recovering from the shock of Cronje and Nell's announcement? Do you think that the project will return to its glorious…

Coloring Outside the Box It's Sunday afternoon guys, and I thought to share with you today some work that is near and dear to me- my son's art. I think **it takes a special soul to be able to create art** and I am blessed to have found that in my seven year old. My son is an amazing artist who loves to draw and to color. For now, his preferred tools are colored pens. Whenever he is allowed to watch cartoons, my little boy would sit before the television with his action…
BCH Adoption Grows in the Caribbean Guys, what do you think of Bitcoin Cash (BCH) as the premier currency for tourism? I've been thinking about it a lot recently after I came across a video posted by Roger Ver on YouTube showcasing the adoption of Bitcoin Cash by regular businesses and service providers on the island of St Maarten. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haKZF4T8nRA This video caught my attention for a number of reasons: I had recently been following the story about…
CEX v DEX: The Battle of the Exchanges Whew, guys! What a night it's been! Yesterday, I stayed up late watching the Oscars, and this morning, I spent the entire morning cleaning the Pepsi and popcorn I had spilled all over my sofa after that phenomenal moment we shall not name. Things got pretty heated there for a bit, didn't it? One minute I was looking at all these fancy movie stars walking the red carpet and then the next, it was like I had a ringside seat at WWE and The…

Cryptocurrency Investment Advice You Should Take Guys, I don't shill cryptocurrency projects, at least I don't *think* I do. Yeah, I've written about coins and tokens I've invested in and feel good about, but I don't think I ever said, you guys should invest in these particular projects because they are gonna go all the way to the moon, and if you didn't support them, you would be left behind covered in rocket exhaust and asteroid dust, right? Rather, when writing about…
